I have a PS file of FB 200 and I am using SAS (9.4) in JCL to create PDF. Below code I used in JCL.

 

//SAS.SYSIN DD *
OPTIONS NOERRABEND;
DATA X;
INFILE IN;
INPUT @1 NAME $128.;
RUN;
FILENAME OUTPDF 'TEST.SAS.PDF' DISP=MOD;

ods _all_ close;
ods pdf file='test.sas.pdf';
PROC PRINT DATA=X;
RUN;
ODS PDF CLOSE;

 

the job is giving return code 08 with SAS log statements as below.

I am unable to figure out what is the error in the statement.

 

 

NOTE: The address space has used a maximum of 1052K below the line and 29596K above the line.

6 FILENAME OUTPDF 'TEST.SAS.PDF' DISP=MOD;
7
8 ods _all_ close;
9 ods pdf file='test.sas.pdf';
ERROR: .
10 PROC PRINT DATA=X;
11 RUN;

NOTE: Due to ERROR(s) above, SAS set option OBS=0, enabling syntax check mode.
This prevents execution of subsequent data modification statements.
NOTE: The PROCEDURE PRINT used 0.00 CPU seconds and 37787K.

Try using your FILEREF rather than the actual file name:

ods pdf file=outpdf;

np.. I changed the code to use FILREF. Still getting same error

 

Code

//SAS.SYSIN DD *
OPTIONS NOERRABEND;
FILENAME OUTPDF 'TEST.SAS.PDF' DISP=MOD;
DATA X;
INFILE IN;
INPUT @1 NAME $126.;
RUN;

ods _all_ close;
ods pdf file=OUTPDF;
PROC PRINT DATA=X;
RUN;
ODS PDF CLOSE;

 

Error

NOTE: The address space has used a maximum of 1052K below the line and 29596K above the line.

Hi. Do you have the ability to review the full output from your process? Or can you provide the full JCL you are using? As a small guide, when I generate PDF's in the IBM Z/os environment I use the following DD....

 

 

//PDFFILE DD DSN=FIPP.I.DAILY.NAG,
// DISP=(,DELETE,DELETE),
// SPACE=(TRK,(100,10),RLSE)
